Well, to my dismay, all N.C. State parks are closed to family camping from Nov 30- March 15. Along this reprehensible trend, the several places I have stayed in the mountains are also closed for the winter. So, there is ONE park open now, it is the Jordan Lake State Park. It is on highway 64, around Apex, N.C. which is actually closer to D.C, and around the same from the South. They have 100 spaces available now, 6 people per space (as many vehicles as you can fit! ) and it's $9.00 for a regular space, and $14.00 for a space with a power hook-up (this is per space, not per person) The park gates are open 8 am - 6 pm, and the number for all wishing further details is 1-919-362-0586. This is the park office, open 9-5. As Isaid, this is on a lake, with trails to hike, etc. Ihave talked to several people that have been there, and they all said it was nice. So, what think the people? How many of us are interested? When do we want to do it? Speak now, or forever hold your peace... Richard
